What’s the best way that people have found to get their public IP address into Home Assistant? It’d be useful to run an automation to send a notification when it changes.

Maybe not the best way, but I set up a Node RED work flow to query the API at ip.me every few minutes for my v4 and v6 addresses, and update sensors in HA.
